[DUG] Exe contents

[Kyley Harris]

Well. You are right about the exe being slightly different. in the case 
of my exes the difference is allways in the exactly the same place,
and there are a series of repeating tokens that are 2 bytes each, which 
are different. as  though it is a date stamp, or symbol table token
or something.

I do remember way back in the days of DOS Turbo Pascal that the help 
said you always have to rebuild the MAP table for each EXE.
so i guess you are not doing this because its a massive file to 
distribute. What are you using the MAP table to do? have you tried just 
compiling memcheck into your program with td32 symbols turned on? it 
logs all memory leaks and errors, with class type, and call stack 
information to show you the exact line of code leaking, no need for a 
map table.
